Contrary to popular belief facial oils can benefit any type of skin - even oily skin. 



The reason why many women are reluctant to use facial oils is because nobody likes to have greasy oily skin, but this is not the case when using facial oils which are rapidly absorbed into the skin the surface is not left greasy and oily.



With the active ingredients that are in modern facial oils, there are many benefits that can be had from using them. 

There is nothing quite like having a facial massage from somebody using good-quality facial oil. 



Today many natural health clinics and spas use and supply facial oils to their clients and there are different types of facial oils for various skin types which are all designed to address different problems.



Some people combine these facial oils with aromatherapy.  Most of these face treatment oils use 100% pure plant extracts.  Some of the common essential oils that are used include sandalwood, cardamom, lavender, blue orchid, geranium, lotus extract, and more. 



These oils are used to help restore and comfort the skin, while reducing redness and irritation.  Other oils such as hazelnut help prevent moisture loss and are excellent for anti-aging.



Oils are used to help normalize, revitalizing and toning the outer layer of skin. The best time to use these face treatment oils is at night as an alternative to night cream.  After you have thoroughly cleansed and toned your face you will apply the oil to your face and neck while it is still damp.  Avoid excess oil around the eye area.  Once applied, you can gently remove any excess oil with a soft tissue or face cloth.



It is particularly beneficial to use oils on the forehead, nose and chin, massage the oil gently into these areas and also on your cheeks.



If you have never used face oils before you should try as you might be surprised how well you like it.
